3.3 Lbs so far...


The Balsa USA website says the Taube should weigh in at 5 Lbs. and I confess being skeptical, but so far I'm at 3.3 Lbs. That weight includes the engine, landing gear, wheels, radio and airborne battery plus all the built up parts. The only stuff missing is push rods, control horns, sheeting on the bottom of the fuselage and the "cowling" plus the covering. The plans call for 1/8" sheeting but I'll use 1/16" along the bottom and 3/32" up by the engine.
